The 2015 Art Festival was held on Bradford Common on Saturday, September 12, from 10 AM until 4 PM. The GHAA has hosted this regional attraction for more than twenty years. The exhibit and sale of fine art by area artists is a one-day-only event, free and open to all. This year, vistors enjoyed the work of fine artists, including Rosanne Bartlett, Lisa Esposito, Tina Gagnon, Don Jalbert, Margery Jennings, Ann Jones, Mary Kelly, James McCarthy, Nicole McLean, Maria Nemchuk, Mary Paganelli, Debbie Shirley, and Joan Turner and more.

This year’s Festival included music! In the morning The Comedy Masque Revue under the direction of Robert Gregory entertained artists and visitors (they’ve been performing for 45 years). In the afternoon Collin Tarr’s jazz quintet This Side of the River played; they performed with the award-winning Pentucket Jazz band, and the ensemble itself has garnered awards (visit their website at www.thissideoftheriver.weebly.com. Thanks to all who stopped by and enjoyed the art and music on a gorgeous sunny day!!
